A 25 by 25 grid of squares, each of which represents a random satellite image of Greater London that's been quantized to show one representative colour. This has resulted in various shades of grey, green and cream, depending on factors like urbanness and green space in the original satellite image. The arrangement of colours appears to be random.

Starting at the top of the painting in the middle there is a dark yellow curve. Intersecting it in the center of the painting is a black line at a 45 degree angle and a dark blue curve. In the top right of the center area there are short horizontal black blue green and red lines. In the top left of the center area are horizontal green red blue and black lines. In the bottom left of the center there is a short horizontal red line.
